One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

There have even been instances where nobles lost their lives while trying out new gameplay.

However, this did not dampen the enthusiasm of those present at the auction.

The snake-headed slaves, which started at 70 Berries, saw their price climb rapidly, quickly exceeding 500 million Berries!

At this point, it's already quite expensive.

After all, this snake-headed woman in front of them had no other value as a subordinate; she could only be bought back as a collectible or a toy.

But at that moment, Stussy slowly raised his number plate: "600 million Berries."

The wealthy man who had been interrupted seemed quite displeased, and he also recognized who the other party was. He immediately said, "Stusi, why aren't you staying in your pleasure district? What are you doing here causing trouble? Does your pleasure district need more snake-headed women? Why are you trying to steal them from me!"

Stussy covered her mouth with the number tag and giggled twice. "I just feel it's such a waste to hand over such a gem to you. Let me take her back and train her properly, then we can all enjoy the pleasure of ascending to heaven. Wouldn't that be a win-win situation?"

"That's right. Once you take him back and train him properly, I'll definitely come and patronize him."

"Count me in. A top-quality person who can be personally trained by the Queen of Pleasure Street is a rare find these days."

"That woman from the long-legged tribe almost killed me last time, hehe."

"Hmph, since that's the case, I'll give you that face, but you must inform me first when the time comes."

"Of course, hehehe~"

Stussy was adept at navigating social situations, and everyone was willing to give her face, so she easily acquired the snake-headed slave for 600 million Berries.

Abel finally remembered the guy's identity.

Stussy, the queen of the pleasure quarters, who is on par with the king of loan sharks!

It is also a well-known presence in the underworld.

It is said that she has a very good personal relationship with Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, and is someone who can affectionately call her 'Lingling'.

But Abel knew far more about this woman's secret identity than that.

She was also a CP0 intelligence agent!

As for his deeper identity, Abel wasn't quite sure, only vaguely remembering that it seemed to be related to Vegapunk.

Being targeted by such a troublesome woman is not good news.

Abel made up his mind to leave immediately after the auction ended, without giving the other party any chance.

The auction proceeded smoothly, with all sorts of treasures, slaves, and weapons on display.

Even a famous sword, one of the fifty finest swords, was bought at an inflated price.

Since Abel already possessed a Demon Maru, he refrained from making a move easily.

"The last item to be auctioned today is a piece of beef from a Krab cow that was just cut and transported here today. It weighs a total of one ton!"

"The starting bid is 500 million Berries, and each bid must be at least 50 Berries higher!"

Wow!

When the piece of beef from the Krabby cattle was displayed in front of everyone, even many of the well-traveled people present couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

The flesh has delicate, marble-like stripes, and the bones shimmer with a dazzling light under the lamp.

This Krak beef is a top-tier ingredient that even the Celestial Dragons, who are high and mighty, cannot eat often!

Most importantly, this cow's meat is not only delicious and juicy, but its bones are also formed entirely of diamonds.

It is truly priceless!

That huge diamond bone alone is worth at least several hundred million Berries; the meat on top is just an afterthought.

It's something that you rarely see, let alone eat, normally.

Who would believe that the Celestial Dragons weren't behind this?

Such a precious item caused a brief silence as everyone considered how much it would cost to acquire it and how much those diamonds could be sold for.

The auctioneer wasn't worried at all about this situation, because good things always sell well.

Sure enough, after a minute of whispering, someone finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"I'll offer ten million Berries!"

"Tch, you think you can buy such a big piece of beef with a mere ten million Berries? You're crazy! I'll offer twenty million Berries!"

"Thirty million Berries!"

In the blink of an eye, the price of this piece of carat beef exceeded 30 million Berries, and it is still rising rapidly.

It didn't take long for it to reach a total of 70 million Berries.

If we disregard the price of the diamond bone and only consider the market price of the meat, the figure of 70 million Berries is already excessive.

But if you add such a large diamond bone, the price becomes insignificant.

So it's less about buying meat and more about everyone scrambling for this bone.

Once the price exceeded 100 million, the bidding speed slowed down significantly.

This means that the number of people just joining in the fun has reached its limit, and now it's time for those with real purchasing power to make their move.

"Two hundred million Berries!"

The wealthy man who had been robbed of his snake-headed slave immediately raised his number plate.

"Stop joking around. I'll give you a number, and anyone with less than that net worth should shut up."

"Five hundred million Berries!"

What the hell!

Many people present subconsciously shouted out various local swear words and turned their gazes to see who was being so arrogant.

Many people showed disdain after seeing that the person who shouted out 500 million Berries was actually an unremarkable chubby guy.

"Whose child is this? Why don't they take care of him? Five hundred million Berries? Have you ever seen that much money?" someone couldn't help but mock.

"What, is 500 million Berries a lot? Surely there are people who have never seen that much money before?"

The chubby boy asked with a puzzled look, causing many people's facial muscles to twitch involuntarily.

The man who had just mocked her was now furious and embarrassed. "That's easy for you to say. I don't believe you can really come up with 500 million Berries!"

The chubby boy nodded and gestured to the bodyguards beside him. Then, one by one, the expressionless bodyguards opened the black boxes in their hands, revealing neatly arranged banknotes inside.

Let alone 500 million, it's probably worth 1 billion Berries!

"How about it, is that enough? If not, I'll have someone go to the ship and get some more."

"you……"

"No way, no way, no one would actually break down over such a small amount of money, right? Otherwise, I'll lend it to you. All you need to do is sign an IOU. Whether it's five hundred million or a billion Berries, it's no problem."

Then, surprisingly, someone actually handed the other party a pre-prepared IOU and a pen.

It's so arrogant!

Chapter 275 A Date with the Queen of Pleasure Street

“I remember now, this guy is Du Fred, the son of Du Feld, the king of loan sharks!”

Suddenly someone exclaimed in surprise.

It immediately attracted everyone's attention.

This is interesting; someone is actually questioning whether Du Field's son can come up with the money.

No wonder he talks about five hundred million or ten billion right off the bat; he doesn't care about money at all.

The man who had been mocking her turned red in the face, and dared not utter any harsh words. He simply slunk away.

"Send a few men to keep an eye on that guy. Make our move as soon as he leaves the island. The prestige of the king of loan sharks is beyond question."

"Yes!"

Even though the other party had run away, Du Fred had no intention of letting them go.

After all, loose lips sink ships; those who dare to speak out will pay the price.

"Can we continue now?"

Du Fred casually crossed his legs, looking almost exactly like his father in both appearance and posture.

Abel was itching to take action, thinking that if he killed this guy here and double-crossed him, he wondered if Doflamingo could withstand the pressure.

"Let's forget it, it's not worth it at this juncture."

He shook his head regretfully.

When the price had soared to 500 million, it meant that the vast majority of people present were out of the game.

The money he brought was obviously not enough.

Even Stussy was unwilling to compete with the other party in terms of financial resources.

A few minutes later, Dufred successfully acquired it for 650 million Berries.

There's definitely a chance to make a profit at this price; it's just a matter of how much and how long it will take.

Abel also noticed that many people began to frequently glance at Du Fred's location, their eyes filled with greed and murderous intent.

Despite the high risks, the rewards are also incredibly amazing!

After we finish this job, we'll find a place to hide for a few years. What can even the king of loan sharks do to us?

Moreover, these pirates who live on the edge of death are lawless, with so many newcomers challenging the Seven Warlords and the Four Emperors every year.

Expecting them to have any great reverence for a king of the underworld is utter nonsense!

More like a fat sheep!

Therefore, many people with ulterior motives left.

Although Abel didn't buy anything this time, he still broadened his horizons.

"Handsome young man, we meet again."
